Description

The Bigblue VTL9000P is a rechargeable dual-beam LED dive light for technical diving and underwater video. It packs a wide beam, a spot and a red mode into a compact 63 mm body.

The wide beam puts out 9000 lumens across an even 120° spread for video. Switch to the 6° narrow beam for 1300 lumens with a focused hotspot that improves visibility in low-visibility conditions. Six red LEDs give 500 lumens of red for low-impact light.

The wide beam has four levels: 900, 2250, 4500 and 9000 lumens. Burn time is 3 hours at full power, 6 hours on level III, 12 hours on level II and 30 hours on level I, the longest in the VTL9000 line-up. Power comes from a self-contained BATCELL18650X4 Li-ion rechargeable pack, and the push-button switch has a battery indicator.

The body is anti-corrosive anodized aluminum with tempered optical glass, tested to 100 m. It measures 63 mm across and 150.3 mm long and weighs 548 g in air with the battery. A yellow filter (FILYEL63), a soft Goodman glove, a 1-inch ball joint, a lanyard and a 7L dry bag come in the box.
